What our Clients Say about Hugo 2

“The sound is highly detailed, and the difference from the Chord Mojo 2 is noticeable. The Hugo 2 feels far more energetic (whereas the Mojo 2 is more laid-back). This has its pros and cons. The Hugo 2 exposes every flaw – recordings of poor quality (not in terms of bitrate, but actual mastering) sound blatantly subpar. For me, that’s a positive – a hallmark of top-notch equipment.”
